I Wanna Be Free Poem by Teasia Ruffin

I wanna be free
But my heart wont let me
It wants to continue beating
Even though its struggling to keep a steady beat
Blood no longer wants to flow
Through my battered body
There are no scars on the outside
But thousands on the inside
I have no idea how I have made it this far
I want to survive but, then again I dont
I want to be free
I want to be caged up
Someone....decide for me
I may pick the wrong decision
